Standards Addressed: 5.NBT.B.5, 5.NBT.B.6, 5.MD.C.3, 5.MD.C.5, 5.NF.B.3, 5.NF.B.4, 5.NF.B.7, 5.OA.A.2 

Unit 5: Place Value Patterns and Decimal Operations  Number of Lessons: 26 

Students build from place value understanding in grade 4 to recognize that in a multi-digit number, a 

digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and of what110  

it represents in the place to its left. They use this place value understanding to round, compare, order, 

add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals. 

 

Section A Goals 

● Compare, round and order decimals through the thousandths place based on the value of the 

digits in each place.  

● Read, write, and represent decimals to the thousandths place, including in expanded form. 

Section B Goals 

● Add and subtract decimals to the hundredths using strategies based on place value. 

Section C Goals 

● Multiply decimals with products resulting in the hundredths using place value reasoning and 

properties of operations.  

Section D Goals 

● Divide decimals with quotients resulting in the hundredths using place value reasoning and 

properties of operations.

Students solve multi-step problems involving measurement conversions, line plots, and fraction operations, including addition and subtraction of fractions with unlike denominators. They also explain patterns when multiplying and dividing by powers of 10 and interpret multiplication as scaling by comparing products with factors.   

Section A Goals 

● Explain patterns when multiplying and dividing by powers of 10.  

● Solve multi-step problems involving measurement conversions. 

Section B Goals 

● Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators.  

● Create line plots to display fractional measurement data, and use the information to solve 

problems.  

● Solve problems involving fraction operations. 

Section C Goals 

● Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing).  

● Make generalizations about multiplying a whole number by a fraction greater than, less than 

and equal to 1.

Unit 7: Shapes on the Coordinate Plane  Number of Lessons: 13 

Students plot coordinate pairs on a coordinate grid and classify triangles and quadrilaterals in a 

hierarchy based on properties of side length and angle measure. They generate, identify, and graph 

relationships between corresponding terms in two numeric patterns, given two rules, and represent 

and interpret real world and mathematical problems on a coordinate grid. 

 

Section A Goals 

● Locate points on a coordinate grid.

Unit 8: Putting It All Together  Number of Lessons: 17 

Students consolidate and solidify their understanding of various concepts and skills related to major 

work of the grade. They also continue to work toward fluency goals of the grade. 

 

Section A Goals 

● Divide multi-digit whole numbers using place value strategies and the properties of operations.  

● Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm. 

Section B Goals 

● Solve multi-step problems involving volume 

Section C Goals 

● Operate with fractions and decimals. Section D Goals 

● Review the major work of the grade by creating and designing instructional routines.
